- The fishing here in Nor. IL is REALLY slowing down as we approach ice fishing season. Unfortunately more videos like this will be posted until the water starts to freeze. I know, it sucks. I hope you all enjoy this video, if not let me know and you will see no more!

This video justifies why I only buy Zebcos now. Thank god someone finally came out and said it
Flair get outta here 😂😂😂😂😂😂
+Andrew Flair Outdoors YES ! Flair ain't Scared !
shakespeare is the way to go and any walmart carries it. lol!
+Andrew Flair Outdoors hahaha i literally caught my PB 9 pound largemouth on my buddy's zebco fishing between classes one day because i didnt have my gear with me.
Because you and this kid in the video go bass fishing not tarpon or snook
Took my brand new Battle II 5000 for a spin yesterday for the very first time and I hooked a 20lb yellowtail using a Ugly Stik X2 (medium hard) rod czcams.com/users/postUgkxM68VkfsQhHaabDce1IwOCXuvumcpbZ_k . This combo was recommended on some website and it did not disappoint me. The reel is smooth, the drag click is pretty cool cause i think it adds to the excitement of fighting the fish, personally the drag is my favorite part. I use braid and 300 yards will fill the entire spool. This combo is my main setup from now on although I have to disclose I am new to fishing.
If you close your eyes, Jon sounds like an old sports announcer 😂😂
Jon is my spirit animal hahaha. Hes like a 20 year grandpa. No disrespect jon b is the man!!!
He does! Lol
I'm open to the disagreement and hate this video will probably continue to generate, but lets be level and cognizant of the fact that the only thing worth spedning $375 on is a pair of limited edition OG Crocs. Also don't get it twisted, I have MAD respect for Daiwa and the JDM game, but bring more to the table then a "duralumin" super shallow spool, an 8.1:1 gear ratio, and a few aesthetic adjustments. This is has been done before, lets see some innovation Daiwa! Thanks for watching, keep fishing. Never stop.

Did you see flairs vid today
+matteo mrt15@att.net Flair who?
+j0j0barz33 you said your intro slowly because flair said you always do it really fast in his newest video
+BigRock Outdoors I noticed that too
Andrew flair. Did you see his video he posted about his wisdom teeth
fishing is getting too damn complicated, getcha ass a Walmart rod and a six pack , you'll be set!
also a pack of craw papii
+Adam Buzzo I don't know about Walmart but nice beginners fishing combo would be good maybe like a 50 dollar combo instead of a 25 dollar combo from Walmart it won't last as long
SCREW WALMART. GET YOURSELF A MlD TO UPPER LEVEL LEW'S BAlT CAST REEL........AND YOU WlLL BE SET. TRULY SKlLLED BASS ANGLERS DON'T HlT THE WATER "TO GET DRUNK"........WE GO TO FlSH FOR THE BlGGEST BASS...........THE BEER CAN COME LATER. YOU CAN'T FlSH TO MY CALlBER WHlLE DRlNKlNG........l ASSURE YOU OF THAT.
+Howabouthetruth caps lock?
Howabouthetruth: To each his own. If you pull out a bigger bass, but somebody else drinks beer and has more fun, who really won?
5:40 will those reels at least do my homework for me?!?!
If your homework is fishing then have at it!
If your homework is slaying da big pigs then yes.
+1Rod1ReelFishing Mike, you're asian. Figure it out
+1Rod1ReelFishing lol I guess they don't know how old you are. you don't have hw
Asians can do their own homework. Smh
I remember watching this when it was first uploaded. that being said, daiwa has really stepped it up since then.
Daiwa is killing it.
So Daiwa turned down your sponsorship application, eh?
He is paid be Shimano
+Ray Choi Shimano is hands down better anyway
+Nathaniel Garde
Buy a steez and compare it to Met and Aldebaran.
Bulky tard reel for 450
i use Diawa baitcasters on shimano rods lol
Dang Jon B. did they reject your sponsorship application.......lmfao! 😂 😂
Hey, you did your intro slowly! Atta boy
I miss when you did vids with Jon
My $80 dollar reels catch just as much as my $300 dollar reels. Unfortunately, some companies sell gear that catch more fishermen than fish. Diawa wants the fancy "High-tech" name to suck in anglers to drag em across the coals.
Tight lines
-Ray
I absolutely love Daiwa, but I fish the salt for calico bass, yellowtail and tuna. My workhorse reels are the Lexa 300 and Lexa 400. Really glad they're names aren't too ridiculous lol
I've been a shimano guy forever but they're sucking really bad lately. The new curado is at joke.
This shit is funny af 😂😂 I love the sarcasm and jokes about Daiwa
Queef
I laughed my ass off at the saltwater fishing part lol.
Good vid , i kinda felt like crap sporting a $49 gander mountain baitcaster .. But tbh I think I've perfected it and it works fine ! Good vid
+Steve Djflashback Leyva jr seriously dude i feel the same way
+Steve Djflashback Leyva jr Man I love my cheap reels. I be seeing these guys with $100+ reels not catching a damn thing but here I come with a Shakespeare reel or rod or cheap a BPS one out catching them all on a budget my nigga. Hate the fisherman not the gamefish. #fishingonabudget
I just spent $179 at Cabela's for my first baitcaster. If I had found one for $49 that I liked I'd have gotten that! Shouldn't feel crap about what you use as long as you enjoy it (and it helps you get better)!
Ah Hahaha ha! Awesome Jon B! I actually agree with you here. There is a limit on what a reel should cost when it only has a few jobs. The highest quality reel, rod and line doesn't make someone better at fishing. Once you have skills and technique then you can find what suits you. That doesn't mean it has to cost a ton of money. But if it does and it's what you are looking for you just gotta bite the bullet if you really want it. This video was worth sharing. Thanks man.
Strike king lures why is so expensive is because KVD
Cracks me up going back in time like this. How far you've progressed. Not that this content was bad or anything.
I think fishing products by in large have gotten completely ridiculous. A good baitcasting rod and a good spinning rod and your done. A hand full of soft plastics a few surface type lures some mid depth some deep water lures and call it a day. 95% of everything made in the fishing industry is designed to catch you the fisherman and not the fish.
J.L Hoffy I fish lakes, cricks, and ponds in the Midwest, I've never set up more than 3 poles.. bass setup, pan fish set up for blugill and crappie, and one for cats and carp, and just covered 90% of the spectrum of fish for the midwest. I'm not sure how anyone could need 6+ poles that in theory all catch fish.
J.L Hoffy what's funny is I use dropshot, texis, wacky, shaky heads, and even sometimes even Carolina rigs... All on the same 6.4:1 baitcaster on a 6'6 medium action rod and have caught fish on all but the Carolina rig in the last week (didn't use the Carolina rig) all within the last week.. and all on the same 10pd high impact line. and on the same pond last night used wacky, shaky head, and even a spin jig and was and most of the group didn't catch a fish. I caught 6 and my buddy caught 3 and no one else did. You don't 10 setups to catch a fish. case, point, end of story
J.L Hoffy also fish on lake 1 week out of every year, and multiple cricks and streams around here. I obviously go up on my bass poles for the lake 3-5 lb test with bigger soft plastics and maybe a lure or always have my cat, and carp poles with 30lb or so. The only thing that chances for a crick is I use my pan fishing poles. either a micro or ultra light with an open face and some 6-8lb line.
In all seriousness, I love this video because it could stop me or anyone else from wasting money on something that wouldn't be able to cast a lure without spooling itself!!!
Zebcco 33 life!
0-100 REAL QUICK!😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 had me rolling!
For Christmas I got my first bait caster, a lot of tackle and a camera drone, great channel and happy new year
Camera drone... Sweet!!!
+Justin Cole thanks
Nice man! Your gonna love your baitcaster just make sure to watch a video on how to use it first. I would go check out 1rod1reelfishing's video on how to use a baitcaster. Good Luck, and Tight Lines!
+Matthew Brown I all ready saw the video thanks
+Gerard rodriguez Nice! You're gunna love fishing a casting reel.
I love the rant yep tone LOL. John gets angry and it gets funny. Its refreshing to get a perspective like this from an established bass CZcamsr, thanks John.
Why is Andrew Flair ranting today
No idea
I could watch this all day. Jon you are priceless in this vid
I just like Abu Garcia, and I was watching a Vanoss video how did I get here?
lmao Vanoss to fishing thats a leap
I do that all the time man👍
[OTD]Sir_Nicholas1259 Abu is trash for the price
[OTD]Sir_Nicholas1259 ii
Gtcracker No its not I have the mgx! The reel rocks!
I died when you said it sounds like a algebra equation this video made my day you should do more rants like this I don't see too many like this keep up the good work man. Love your vids!
My reel washes my dishes and edits my videos. I more than agree that baitcast reels are way over priced. Got to make fishing more affordable.
This is the funniest reel video ever! These ain't no Bugatti!😂
I have the diawa lexa 300 and love it but I find my self using the Abu Garcia blaxmax way more which is like 3x cheaper then the lexa lol
This is probably the best video I've seen in a while
I have or have owned all of these reels you have in your links so I can give you a little history on all of them.
First most are or were JDM only reels so they were designed around the Japanese market demands not the US. Daiwa, Shimano and Abu all have interesting options available only Japan. Why Tackle Warehouse only brought Daiwa's JDM offerings over I have no clue.
The SS is the "poor man's steez", same frame but no clicking cast control cap, single disk drag and a zaion (plastic) handle side plate. The steez has more "clickies" and is more refined but costs more. The SV is the spool, which stands for stress free versatile. It is probably the easiest casting spool on the market in all forms (SS, steez, sv105, sv103) The 103 is the size, the larger the number the smaller the capacity. You can get the SS for about $240 from japan to your door but TW is having a clearance on the rest of the ss's currently.
The SS AIR is the SS but with the AIR spool which is designed for casting ultralight lures (under 1/16oz) with casting gear. BFS (bait finesse system) is the JDM concept of using these specialized reels along with light power rods to fish Japan's very high pressured lakes where bass won't bite the average bass lure at times. By using casting gear vs spinning you have more accuracy and control of how the lure enters the water to prevent spooking nervous fish. This type of fishing is the hardest for the US angler to understand "WHY?" but don't knock it until you try it. By entire BFS combos weigh 7.5oz and are a blast to fish with. You can get these for under $300 to your door and both Shimano and Abu have reels for this as well in the same price range.
The T3's have been phased out for the most part but they were Daiwas first generation full zaion reel and the first t-wing reel. The MX was Japans version of the t3 ballistic sold here. But the MX had a few upgrades and was lighter than the ballistic. The flip open hood scared some but it was just part of the the clutch release system. The t3's were and are still some of the best reels made for flipping and pitching because by closing the hood by hand the gears would engage without turning the handle allowing for very quick hooksets if the fish grabbed the jig on the fall. But the zaion construction made the reels feel very hollow. You can get these for cheap now ($100-140)
The sv105 which first came out in Japan as the alphas sv is the old Daiwa alphas (sold here in the states as the sol) with the sv 105 sized spool. These are very small aluminum framed reels with the same concept as the shimano 50 sized reels. They can cast lures from 3g on up very well. Virtually the same sized as Daiwas tiny px-r they are great for those who prefer smaller reels. They can be had for under $200 to your door and dollar for dollar are very hard to beat for smoothness and casting performance. Due to line capacity limitations they aren't the best for big baits but are a fun reel.
The sv103 which is simply the og zillion modified to take the popular 34mm spools that are used in most of daiwas other low profile reels (t3, steez, ss ect) instead of the 36mm the og zillion had. Solid and smooth but a bit heavy by today's standards they are good on heavier longer rods to help balance them out.
Are any of these needed over a cheaper reel? No not at all but I won't tell a Ferrari owner that a Honda is all he needs. Its all about whats worth it to that angler. People who've never fished an NRX rod would be hard pressed to drop $500 on a rod but once you do try one then your $200 dollar rod all of a sudden feels sub par. Will a $300+ reel make fish jump into your boat, no but fish a top end Daiwa or Shimano and you get the same feeling going back to a cheaper reels. The top tier reels are the Ferrari's of the fishing reel world and they are true works of art. The Honda may get you from point A to B just like the Ferrari but the Ferrari is a lot more fun getting you there.
Very well put. Funny how Mr. Jon B as he calls himself had no comment too yours.
The saltwater part had me rollin lmao!
I'm going to have to keep my comments to myself on this video, lol
+TackleJunky81 LOL sorry John I can rip you a new one on this.. There is NO reason to
own a Porsche GT3 RS, but its a hell of a lot of fun to drive one.. You
obviously have ZERO clue what your talking about when it comes to JDM
reels.. I can educate you though as I own 28 JDM daiwas and have owned over 75 JDM reels including Shimanos... And I Own 2 Daiwa SS SV SHLs.... LOL Oh and the Daiwa PIXY and the Tierra and Advantage DO NOT share the same frame nor are they even close, but you should know this right? Pixy and Alphas(now the Daiwa SV(simply Versatile) 105...
L O L
+Trey Harpel
What would be your ultimate finesse baitcast setup? I believe they call in BFS, bait finesse system.
+Justin Cole man... For a couple Years ive been using the Dobyns DX701C and Daiwa Pixy SPR with 4lb line... This is a Casting setup and I use it for drop shot... LOVE this combo as its a blast to throw... Ive also used it for trout fishing... The Pixy Type R I have I use for Frogging with 50lb braid so its not just a FINESSE reel.. Holler if you have more questions...
I didn't bash the Type R though, I actually really like that reel being that it walked the line between finesse and other fishing applications. You get an extra 25yds of 8lb capacity and the craftsmanship is FAR superior than any of the reels I mentioned in this video.
This is awesome. You need more videos like this
Man picks apart a fishing reel for being overpriced.....uses a mac to do so.......no irony here XD
whats the best reel for beginners
President....Laguna.....BPS.....Cabela's
A cheap good Reel is abu garcia black max, i think its $40
i like this style of video from time to time...loving the honesty its not being rude just showing business critique i think
Jon buddy, you have another video out that shows you getting a super exspensive shimano reel ,that doesnt hold alot of line , and you said, thats what you want because you love fishing finesse baits. wtf bro!. the true and blue pros stick to there word and there theories, not that your actually a pro (fishing golf course ponds and only venturing out when your sponsers pay, im sure you throw in a little of your papper route money too). but it really sucks that you and 1rod1reel, lunkertv and apbassin are teaching a younger generation to fish. you've met the boys from uncut angling before, why dont you take a page from there book and actually do some good fishing?
"they wont pick your kids up from soccer practice" hahahaha this was funny as hell
Got to go with Abu Garcia they are the best
There are a lot better reels then Abu Garcia's like JDM reels like shimano and diawa and American companies like Lews
I think the same
Lews reels is a reel company that follows they have no inavation to there name Abu has the fastest reel Diawa has the tws and air breaking
Quantum has the exo pt reels shimano has freaking digital chips lews has nothing
+caden kea you must not know anything about lews.
+Thunderbird Lew's and Abu Garcia reels are made in the same factory in Korea. Doyo Industries is the specific factory. There is no competition between them, they're made with essentially the same materials. Lew's in fact has ZERO innovation, because they don't even make their own reels. Also, to the guy who says Abu Garcia is innovative because they have "the fastest reel," that really isn't an impressive feat. Any company could cut 9.X:1 gears if they wanted to. Daiwa has a 9.1:1 gear option in their TWS Zillion series, too (same speed as the Revo Rocket). Daiwa and Shimano (and possibly Ardent, Quantum) are the only companies that are making their own reels in their own factories right now.
I loved this tbh. Please do more on fishing stuff that makes you rant
i wonder where this dude works. to be able to afford all that shit
CZcams.
+j0j0barz33 dam you said youtube. hahaha got em.
he's sponsored
Please keep doing these hilarious bashing videos😂😂😂
why not just call them
daiwa a
daiwa b
daiwa c
and so on
I have to admit, I laughed when you started talking about the crocs like they were j's
Daiwa = Value......compared to Shimano. I own 8 Ryoga reels. Yes, they are highly into the "enthusiast" reel market, and people who are real REEL enthusiasts. I had some smart ass come on my channel and tell me I ought to be buying a Lews reel. I know what a Lews reel is, and the ones today aren't like the REAL Lews speed spools with the V spool I had in 1970. I buy Daiwa's because the value is there. And not bass reels, from Tackle Warehouse. But true saltwater reels, like Saltists etc. Comparisons to a Saltist in a Shimano is the Tekota in same price range, and the Tekota can't even compare, in Value. But then again I love my old 8 Curado 300 DSV's as much as all my customized Zillions. So what's in a name? Not much. "THINK ENTUSIAST" when you think Daiwa.
+Mike M I have noticed that over the years....(I've been fishing all waters for 40+ years) that Shimano is getting a little big for their britches. KInda high on the prices. I bought 4 Daiwa Airds "saltwaters" for my customers. They are light and have the "features" I wanted. (the key reason we buy what we buy, the features WE are looking for) On Ebay right now you can get left-overs or even this years for $65 or less. The newest Fuego is brand new and has like 11 bearings and all the bells and whistles for about $129. More inexpensive and freshwater baitcasters have graphite frames, to make them lighter for you all day casting guys. When JoJoBarz33 grows up and can afford to be a Enthusiast, he'll "get it"......the same reason some drive a brand new Mercedes or Bugati , "it only drives down the road"......But, does it so much nicer than a Lincoln!
I'm a die hard daiwa guy. couldn't agree more, i am an enthusiast myself. customized daiwa jdm reels and fishing them. One day Jon B should take the Daiwa Ryoga 1016H and hook up on a 35# yellowtail. Then he will understand why Daiwa has that rep. Caught a Yellowtail 35# on 20 braid + 17lb fluoro 2ft leader with a 7'11 xtra heavy teramar pair with a daiwa ryoga 1016hl. yes, small reel for a monster fish. I landed the sucker in 2.5hrs... Finessing the salt at it's finest.
Just think...a Ryoga with TWS? Hmm, that maybe a bit of "over engineering". Of yeah, I do big Redfish, micro jigging on a Jigging master rod XXXL, and a Ryoga 1016. All with non- MTB lures! hahahahaha.
ryoga + tws = game over. take my money
yeah, I'd probably need to have 10 of them!
I liked this video 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼. Hope to see more of these good job John.
so basically rename this video "Roast of Diawa" LOL! Love your vids man, keep em up
this is one of the funniest vids ever
Like your style in this video much better than all the fluff you put in your most recent videos. Thanks for the info.
"Bugatti reels" 😂😂 Great vid. Made me laugh
Hey man, I really like and support this type of video... For someone like me that's starting from scratch and getting into bass fishing alone, strong thoughts really help. (I'm not really talking about this video) but videos where you say exactly what you like and don't like really help.
I got fresh air and the opportunity to live another day for Christmas!!
John b out here roasting daiwa lmao
John that was amazing, halarios to. Thank you for this video and please I urge you to make more of these
This video was too funny!! MAKE MORE
I might be the only person to say this but I 100% agree with you! Like 55 yds of 8lb like spoil it up with some 20lb flurocarbon and let's go flippin like you would get like 10 yds of 20lb on there.😂 I understand it's a finesse reel but then it doesn't have a "range of uses" GOOD VIDEO AS ALWAYS!
I like these kinda videos from you 😂
the croc 4s! 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 oml
😂😂😂 made me laugh at the end but yeah i like these types of videos
THIS WAS GREAT!!! Loved it
5:13 through😂 I think Jon's a little salty😆 Good vid though
Do more of these. Had me crying laughing!!
Great video bro keep them coming 0 too 100 real quick ahahaha that was a good one.👍
Savage, search & destroy, haha love the videos keep them up kid.
i like this kind of vid...keep up the good work kid!
This was hilarious, you should do more of these for sure!
this was well said i know someone who OWNED the diawa ss air and returned it after three fishing trips but still love you content john and i got a feild and stream tec-spec elite 6,6 mediun heavy
greatest product video ever lmao.
Absolutely hilarious!! I cried a little from laughing haha
still one of your funniest videos
I agree 100% on how unnecessary it is to spend that much on a reel. At the moment I have two baitcasting setups. The first is for frogs and is a 6.3:1 bass pro shops reel loaded with 65 pound braid on a medium heavy veritas 2.0. The other is a jack of all trades setup with a 6.3:1 bass pro reel (two years newer) with dual braking system loaded with 17 pound floro on a 7' medium veritas rod. Both reels cost less than $80 and have never given me any grief. They are smooth, strong, and sturdy.
love these types of videos!
Would love to see some more of these videos... Maybe some more company roasts... It's informative and funny
Totally agree. Now you should make a video featuring some good reasonably priced brands/models you do recommend.
Big fan bro, keep it up.
Love these kinds of videos
You should make more of these videos there very helpful and I understand where you're coming from. I say the same thing all the time
love this style of video great job!
I respect this video you acknowledge you're expensive reels are solely comfort purchases. They are obnoxious lol
ive never laughed so hard watching a fishing related video lol
good video, I like the break down ones, keep the coming
I've seen guys catch monster fish on hand lines, I've seen guys catch great fish with a bamboo pole with a line tied to the end, I've personally caught some big fish on a second hand rod with a diecast reel that was given away free when you bought a certain amount of gas for your car, and I've seen guys with gear costing more than a months wages catch nothing but a cold.
Technique and knowledge will catch you more fish than fancy expensive gear will.
Love the video 😂 super entertaining
I'm so glad you said something these over priced reels are so ridiculous!
I was laughing so hard when I saw your snapchat lmao funny stuff man keep it up
I picked up a bait cast combo, medium, 6'6", with some solid 12 pound test.
Best video in a while!
I’m a daiwa fanboy and would give an arm and a leg for those reels regardless, but I just love coming back to this video every now and then cause it’s funny LOL
haha these vids are hilarious ... good job man
Beautiful video. Well said!! Amazing point!
5:29 left me rolling on the ground! Hahaha
Haha dude your a boss. 100% agree more vids like this would be dope
Just found this gem of a vid! Damn that's funny. Need more snark like this in your vids. :)
This is great I love it do more like this
I agree. A reel's job is to cast a lure, retrieve, and fight a fish when hooked. No need to $500+ reels. The prices are overkill. I'll stick to my $50-$100 reel and will catch as many fishes as a $500+ reel will.
I like these kinds of videos
It's a good thing you mentioned this Jon... I was almost going to buy the SS SV 103 for the purpose of picking up my kids from soccer practice, but not now!
I think this is hilarious. You just keep ripping on Daiwa LOL
